"EARHART TO ITASCA..." is the beginning of the last haunting message broadcast by America"s lost aviation heroine on July 2, 1937. No conclusive evidence regarding the fate of Amelia Earhart or her navigator Fred Noonan was immediately discovered. More than 50 years later, the search continues, as investigators draw nearer to a conclusion to one of the 20th century"s greatest enigmas. What began as Houston businessman T.C. Buddy Brennan"s avocation of recovering Japanese war planes from the Pacific has evolved into one of the most plausible and convincing cases regarding Earhart"s fate. Brennan"s key witness, Mrs. Nieves Cabrera Blas, a native of Saipan whose family"s farm adjoined Japanese headquarters on the island during World II recalls: "....One day I am working on the farm and I see three Japanese motorcycles. Amelia Earhart is in a little seat on the side of one motorcycle. She is wearing handcuffs and she is blindfolded. I watch and they take her to this place where there is a hole been dug. They make her kneel in front then they tear the blindfold from her face and throw it into the hole. The soldiers shoot her in the chest and she falls backwards into the grave..."Video tape of actual interviews is available.
